2003 Top Ten Top Tens

It is with great pleasure that we present Light Reading's Top Ten List of our Top Ten Lists from 2003. Well, OK, call it the Only Ten List if you're a stickler...

While you're sitting at your desk trying to digest all the holiday food and perhaps nursing a New Year's hangover, we thought it would be convenient to provide all the lists in one place -- in one handy, integrated solution, if you will.

Now, compared with the soaring 1999 and the violent crashing of 2001, 2003 was relatively serene in the telecom world (which is not a bad thing). Nevertheless, each year we try to muster as much editorial flair as we can in drawing up lists of the best stories, all the while avoiding the long, sinewy arm of our great nation's libel laws.

Enjoy! And don't work too hard...
